Stage 3. moons.js: 21 moons as lit spheres with local per-parent compression (clear the exaggerated parent, ordering preserved), retrograde via negative period. rings.js: Saturn textured annulus (true 74500–140220 km scaled with parent) + Uranus thin schematic ring, tilted with axial tilt, DoubleSide. Moons draw at the parent's exaggeration so Io/Jupiter ≈ 0.026 ratio holds. Label visibility gated via CSS2DObject.visible (CSS2DRenderer clobbers div.style.display every frame — fixed). Gate: Galilean laps 1.00:0.50:0.25 (1:2:4), Triton retrograde (Δθ<0), moons ordered io<europa<ganymede<callisto. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

SOLARGOD ▸ Solar System View
A browser-based compressed-scale 3D solar system explorer — real ephemerides, scrubbable time across centuries, jump-to-orbit navigation, and live layers for deep-space probes, asteroids, and comets. Sibling of GODSIGH, which watches Earth; SOLARGOD watches everything else. Everything runs client-side from free, public, keyless data.
Status: pre-build. The full spec lives in SOLARGOD_BRIEF.md.

Planned layers
| Layer | Source | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Planets | JPL Keplerian elements (Standish) | computed locally, no network — scrub 1800–2050 |
| Moons & rings | JPL SSD satellite elements | 21 major moons, Saturn/Uranus rings |
| Spacecraft | JPL Horizons | Voyagers, New Horizons, JWST, Parker — where they are now |
| Asteroids | JPL SBDB | real main-belt sample + NEO close approaches (CNEOS CAD) |
| Comets | JPL SBDB | Halley & friends, full orbits, 1/r² tails |
MEGA mode compresses distances so the whole system is one readable view; TRUE mode animates it back out to its real, humbling emptiness.
